Felice could understand the faint encouragement and support in Russell's hesitant words. Russell clearly knows that if Felice chooses to follow the people from the Tower of Sea, he will definitely become his opponent in the future... Even if he can choose not to be an enemy of Russell, he will never continue to be friendly with him. .
But he told it anyway. Felice quickly judged one thing: his soul-oriented talent was not just an attribute of the Black Mystery Tower. It was very likely that the mastermind behind the Tower of Theia was also good at soul spells.
Russell's teacher must have brought something out between the lines... That's why Russell gave him this hint.
Compared with having to rely on self-study... Root's help can only go so far. No matter how good Felice is, there will be no change until he becomes a seventh-ring mage.
However, if he really became the Seventh Ring on his own, then there would be no need for others to change their attitudes.
Russell was indeed thinking about him... even letting him turn to the darkness. This is not the same as taking a soul potion and being forced to change the soul attributes. Entering darkness does not necessarily mean doing evil, and even if you choose to do evil, it is your own choice.
For a mage, alignment has never been a problem. The only problem is whether it is his own will.
Felice didn't hesitate at all: "I'll stay here." Russell was a little surprised. He was not surprised that Feliz had a bottom line, but it made him a little confused that Feliz's bottom line was so high.
"Kindness is just a choice, not a necessity, you know, right?" Russell asked softly.
"I know better than you what the Tower of Black Mystery is like." Felice rolled his eyes.
"What I see are things that will never appear in front of a serious mage like you who has the backing and trump cards. Tsk, none of the tower owners who allow these things to happen within their own control can compare to kindness. The Heinalson family is like a paradise compared to..." Felice sat down on the table: "But the more I see that scene, the stronger my rebellious psychology becomes. People People do things like that, why do I have to do it. I don’t know if this emotion has something to do with my talent, but... I want to do it according to my heart. It’s just self-taught, Archmage Gilbert, Isn’t it mainly self-taught? I don’t know how far I can go, but take your time! It’s better than before. Moreover, your arrival has made me more determined on my path. Thank you very much, La Serge.”
"What do you mean?" Russell was really confused this time.
"The inherited magic book of the Tower of Black Mystery." Felice glanced at him and pulled out several books.
"I don't think you really can't tell the difference between a metal cover and a leather cover. Therefore, you must be so ignorant because you have no feelings. But Archmage Lute and your teacher will definitely not be able to see the difference. Come out." Russell's eyes widened...skinny?
He has obviously touched every book! He tried hard to recall his previous feelings. Although he suddenly had a strange feeling that was a bit paradoxical, when he flipped through it just now, it should be a black iron book.
He still has some memory. In today's world, it's not that there is no skin. After all, there are actually some small animals raised in the magic tower... Mouse skin is also skin.
But it can make magic books, and at first glance, it looks like the cover of a magic book with a long history. They are long-extinct, legendary and powerful creatures.
Just like the dragon that brought down all the magic towers. Even if it is not as incredibly powerful as that dragon, at least it is not something that a mage can touch.
"I just gave it to you...why?" Russell murmured.
"Probably, there has been no soul mage in the Tower of Black Mystery for a long time. No one can teach me anyway, so it depends on how much I can learn from this book." Felice frowned. He lowered his head and gently slid his fingers over the black leather cover.
"Um...what's the reason?" Russell still couldn't understand. What he didn't understand even more was why Root trusted Felice so much and kept silent. Even Gilbert acted very calmly, as if this inheritance book was no different from other magic books.
"You don't have to look like that." Felice chuckled softly.
"That Archmage is not a fool. After I made up my mind not to go to the Tower of Sea, and would rather stay in the Tower of Black Mystery forever and be my ordinary mage, this book became what it is now. If I hadn't figured it out ...Then this book in my hand is no different from other magic books. It will eventually return to the hands of the great mage. This kind of inexplicable way of testing people... No wonder the magic tower keeps saying that The Archmage's style of doing things is a bit weird." Russell always felt that something was wrong, but he knew that it was useless to ask Felice, so he just said calmly: "So, in the end, you still have to make your own choice. Your own path. I can't help you with anything... Then, I can only wish you the best to walk on that sunny road according to your heart." Felice couldn't help laughing: "Such a blunt Blessings, thank you for saying it. However, I accept your thoughts, and I do feel the warmth. Russell, please say more nice things... Being venomous, although comfortable, will not let you live a good life. "
"Master Lute has the most poisonous mouth in the Tower of Black Mystery." Russell was really ready to leave this time.
"As long as one day I can become stronger, then I won't have a character that offends people. After all, I only tell the truth, it just doesn't sound so nice."
"Why do you have to tell the truth? Sometimes touching lies are reasonable, right? In this world, lies sometimes make people live happier."
"Ah... you have your persistence, and I have mine."
"You know what you're talking about, don't you?"
"Of course. No one knows my own choices better than I do now. It's great that, although we are all different, we have both found the path we want to take. So, goodbye, Feliz."
"I don't think you need to make it sound like we won't see each other for a long time. The Tower of Siya won't even give us a year."
"Then who knows? I've learned quite a lot about prophecy recently!" Russell waved his hand and left without looking back.
"What nonsense are you talking about? That's not the same thing at all, okay? Do you think you are stargazing? Hey~ Russell...wait..." Felice didn't know if Russell heard what he said at the time. ...After all, once the secret room door is closed, no sound can come in.
But now he knows that Russell is somewhat toxic. He has seen a lot of venomous and mean-mouthed people, so how come Russell could make the harsh words sound like true prophecies?
So what...the divine prophecy spell, could it be true...how is it possible? If a formal mage like Russell who had just advanced could really see a corner of his destiny, what kind of mage could he be? He could just become a god!
If Russell hadn't known to send him a message, Felice would have really been forgotten by the whole world... Fortunately, Gilbert was still the same Gilbert. Even if he was busy moving, he still left the side tower and the underground Part of the channel was opened to him.
Feliz could already navigate the secret passage between Gilbert's side tower and the Heinalson mansion in the outer ring... Of course, the mansion at the moment was still a piece of wasteland that Gilbert had seized the opportunity to win for the family... Pass at will.
At the beginning, Gilbert did not intend to give him such great authority... Felice didn't need to think too much to understand that this must be related to the soul-based inheritance book he had accepted.
Although Archmage Lute behaved very mediocrely, he seemed to really pay attention to him. Feliz somewhat understands Gilbert's character: although he is willing to help Feliz, he will never do anything extraordinary for Feliz.
To be able to allow Felice to take over part of the authority of his side tower, and even allow him to pass through the inner and outer rings of the Black Mystery Tower at will, must be the exceptional permission from Root.
In this extremely chaotic environment, Felice suddenly felt that he was quite important.
He held his magic book and walked slowly down the underground passage that he could finally enter, feeling a little complicated.
